A UFO is stranded on earth and impounded by the US government. Its pilot, a cat with a collar that gives it special powers, including the ability to communicate with humans, has eluded the authorities and seeks the help of a scientist in order to reclaim and repair his ship and get back home.
The Cat From Outer Space is likely to keep the under-14's amused, at least if supplemented by plenty of popcorn.
